Who OWNS the Hogwarts House Elves? - Harry Potter Explained

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we're discussing each instance in which Harry Potter - the aptly named "Boy Who Lived" - was hit with and RESISTED an Unforgivable Curse.To start with, I'm going to give a quick run down of the Unforgivable Curses themselves. There are, as many of you will know, three Unforgivable Curses in total. They are the Killing Curse, the Imperius Curse and the Cruciatus Curse. Each of these curses are, in their own way, incredibly terrible and can often cause irreparable and sometimes - as in the case of the Killing Curse - FATAL damage to its victims.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're discussing the history of educational institutions within the Wizarding World. As it stands today, there are 11 noteworthy and reputable wizarding schools that can be found in various regions scattered across the globe. Each of these institutions have long-standing histories and are recognized by the International Confederations of Wizards, specifically catalogued by the Confederation's Educational Office. Their inclusion within the Educational Office's catalogue essentially communicates to witches and wizards looking to send their children to school that these are the gold standards for education within magical society. And while these 11 schools are not the only institutions to have existed over the centuries - there are many smaller wizarding schools which have been established over the years - they are certainly the best. This is due to the fact that the lesser known, smaller schools often operate without following the proper protocols - they are typically unregistered with their respective Ministries and fail over time. Therefore, they are considered to be unregulated and potentially unreliable when it comes to the student curriculum. As a result, the majority of these institutions do not tend to stand the test of time and will therefore not be included in today's overview of the history of education within the Wizarding World.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're discussing former Durmstrang student, Viktor Krum, and whatever happened to him after the fateful events of the Triwizard Tournament in 1994.Born in Bulgaria during the year 1976, Viktor Krum was a European wizard who received his magical education from the Durmstrang Institute, which was located in Northern Europe and one of three of the continent's largest wizarding schools.Growing up in Bulgaria, Viktor and his family were exposed to the horrific acts of the dark wizard, Gellert Grindelwald. In fact, Grindelwald was even responsible for the death of Viktor's grandfather, which led Krum to despise the dark wizard and his followers. Despite being marred by this tragedy, however, Viktor went on to become a talented student and internationally recognized Quidditch player.

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we'll be discussing the MOST powerful wandless magic within the wizarding world at large.Within the Harry Potter series, it's hard to imagine the majority of the scenes that focus on magic - WITHOUT wands. There are just SO many important and pivotal scenes that all revolve around these magical devices. From the more innocent scenes of The Philosopher's Stone when Harry Potter himself steps into Ollivanders wand shop for the first time and Hermione schools Ron and Harry on how to pronounce "Wingardium Leviosa" to the more ominous plotlines that deal with the whole twin core thing or Lord Voldemort's pursuit of the most powerful wand known to exist - the Elder Wand - these magic-wielding sticks are integral to the very heart of the books and the films. And yet - despite all the great and terrible things that witches and wizards are able to do using wands - there are also quite a few other forms of extremely powerful WANDLESS magic out there.
